About this map

Mammoth Cave National Park dominates the central and northern reaches of this survey, where the Green River and Nolin River converge amidst a landscape of dramatic karst topography. The area is defined by its complex drainage and subterranean features, notably the Double Sink, Cedar Sink, and Turnhole Spring. High ground is marked by prominent landmarks such as Crumps Knob and Brooks Knob, the latter accessed by Brooks Knob Lookout Tower Rd.

South of the park boundary, rural life is anchored by small crossroads and settlements including Rhoda, Arthur, and Chalybeate. This region preserves deep family roots, evidenced by numerous burial grounds like Silent Grove Baptist Church Cem and the Miles-Davis Cem. The transportation network reveals a transition from traditional routes like Houchins Ferry Rd to modern thoroughfares, while island features such as Stice Island and Boardcut Island remain distinct within the river's winding course.
